Join us for a transformational workshop designed to help you rebuild your inner foundation, find renewed strength, and move forward with clarity and confidence.

Presented by Dr. David Petrovay for Phase2Careers and the Redwood City Public Library.

🎤 Your Authenticity Will Win You the Offer

Interviews can feel intimidating — but confidence doesn’t come from memorizing the “perfect” answer. It comes from showing up as your authentic self.

Join Phase2Careers on Wednesday, June 24 at 10AM for a powerful workshop designed to help you:

✨ Feel grounded and calm before interviews

✨ Tell your story with confidence

✨ Prepare authentic responses that stand out

✨ Walk into interviews feeling like your best self

The session will be led by Lynn Kirkham, founder of Yes You Can Speak and TEDx Berkeley speaker coach. After overcoming her own fear of being seen and heard, Lynn has spent the last 16 years helping others build confidence and share their voices with impact.

She has guided more than 5,000 professionals to move from panic to presence and speak with genuine confidence so they nail interviews, presentations and even conference stages. Her clients often say she believes in them so deeply that they can’t help but believe in themselves.

If interviews leave you feeling anxious or unsure, this workshop is for you.
